Earthscapes Series
NorthQuest

Earthscapes offers the pure natural sound of nature's voice. Recorded and mastered digitally in enhanced stereo, this is the earth's unadulterated voice, as pure and as simple as nature can make it. Listen to the voice of the earth.

	The songs of the humpback whales form an underwater world of magical, dreamy sounds. Haunting and melancholy, they reverberate through the ocean depths. What are they saying to us, these whales of the ocean deep?
	The sound of the ocean is timeless. It is the sound of time beating endlessly on a sunny beach, of ocean waves rolling one after another, in perfect rhythm, onto soft sands. Stand at the edge of a shimmering sea, dreaming of distant shores.
	Dawn is breaking. A chorus of birds awakens and announces the beginning of a new day. Listen to the owl hoot, the wood pigeons coo and the robin call out to the woodpeckers and the woodland forest begins to stir.
	The jungle teems with life. Listen to the kaleidoscope of animals that make the jungle their home. Parrots, elephants, lions, chimpanzees, hyenas and gorillas are only a few of the animals that thrive in the depths of the great jungles.
	It is a cold, moonless night. Dark and mysterious, silent except for the melancholy howling of a lone wolf. Soon, the forest echoes with the cries of the pack, reverberating across a stunning expanse of dense snow and icicle-covered trees.
	Whale songs fill the world's oceans—but only a few can be classified as songs with melodies and complex structures. The most famous of these are the songs of humpbacks. Only males sing, and research shows that they do so in order to comfort females and calves. Now, we can enjoy the pure, rich song of the humpback—and let it calm us.
	Join a family of dolphins as they frolic in the gentle waves of a protected tropical bay. The squeaks and clicks that make up the unique language of dolphins can be ultimately soothing to human ears—and if research into the dolphin language continues to progress, we may soon be able to understand these wondrous animals!
	Journey into the heart of Africa, traveling with lions, leopards, elephants, zebras, cheetahs and wildebeest as they cross the grasslands of the Serengeti. Close your eyes and feel the heat of the sun beating down as these animals search for food, fight, play and relax on a typical day in the savannah.
	In the fascinating world of frogs, their language of croaks is perhaps most interesting. Large frogs have deep voices, while small frogs sing in high chirps. Frogs "sing" in order to attract a mate, mark their territory, because they are frightened, or—amazingly—because they know the weather is going to change!

Spirit of America Series
NorthQuest

If the United States has one defining quality, it's variety. Whatever you want to see, do, or enjoy, you'll certainly be able to find it within the vast and diverse confines of the United States of America. Travel the finest terrain in the country with this elegant collection of instrumental music combined with the gentle sounds of nature.

The Southwest is known for its incredibly diverse landscapes, from deserts filled with cacti to mountains covered in snow. The area's beauty amazes, transfixing the eye in an endless metamorphosis of colors and shapes. Just after sunset, distant ridges turns soft and gray, silhouetted against purple-pink skies. Surround yourself with the magical beauty of the Southwest with this stunning combination of acoustic piano and nature sounds.

At Bryce Canyon National Park, erosion has shaped colorful limestones, sandstones and mudstones into thousands of spires, fins, pinnacles, and mazes. Collectively called "hoodoos," these unique formations are whimsically arranged and tinted with colors too numerous and subtle to name. Nowhere else in the world can one find a concentration of pinnacles with odd shapes like those found in Bryce Canyon. Enjoy the unique beauty of Bryce Canyon again and again with soothing acoustic piano and nature sounds.
